OUR UMBRELLA ASSOCIATION

Wing Tsun International (WTI)

WingTsun International is a professional martial arts organization with a focus on self-defense. For the association, the term “international” is of the utmost importance. Understanding among people is an important topic! The association is particularly committed to helping people and breaking down prejudices of all kinds. In TA self-defence, the "T" stands for traditional: This means everything that is good, such as respect for the elderly or the protection of the weak - strength should not be abused, one's own center must be found.
The “A” stands for authentic because TA WT has stayed true to the origins of its founder Ng Mui (a Shaolin nun) but adapted to the needs of modern society. The WTI members are a reflection of German society. Further information about our system can also be found on the official website of our umbrella organization.

Si-Gung Turan Ataseven

Si-Gung Turan Ataseven is the founder and head of WTI.

The teacher, who has experience in martial arts for 40 years, practiced many different unarmed martial arts, from judo to taekwondo and boxing to wrestling. He was looking for the right self-defence for a long time - until he finally found WingTsun. Since then he has been tirelessly doing TA WingTsun.

At the same time he learned the Filipino weapon fight (Escrima). Turan Ataseven has introduced WT to the police, border guards and military in many countries or has been involved in their programs.

In 1997 Si-Gung Turan was personally invited to Hong Kong by his Si-Gung Leung Ting to present his own interpretation of WingTsun in China.

where he was also appointed national coach of Turkey at the same time. In the same year he became champion in WingTsun.

Today, Turan Ataseven sees himself confronted with new tasks: His main focus is on supporting his students and trainers, who have now become the pillars of his association. He is still fully active in teaching today and still personally directs his instructor and trainer academy.

Sifu Turan is very open to other associations and martial artists and likes to maintain friendly contact with them.

He led several courses in other associations and also inspired other styles. During the years of his career, his very dynamic WingTsun performances brought him great fame - both inside and outside of Germany.
